Default Vlookup and match part of text in a cell

Hi, I am trying to match text in an array that may not be exact match in the
cell and return the value in the adjacent column. example: look up "today"
in the array that has "today is the 3rd" and then return the value next to
this. Seems simple, but I can not work this out. I 've looked through the
discussions and can not seem to find the appropriate answer.
